Rating: Summary: This'll be the reward for reading Azure Bonds Review: The first and third books in the series are good to read once, but Wyvern's Spur can be read over and over again. I can't guess how many times I've read it. While the other books are kind of dark and spooky, WSpur is just fun. It's a kick in the pants. Giogioni is my kind of hero. I doubt the missus'll let me name a kid after him though.... Oh well. Hooray for Giogi!
Rating: Summary: A well-written fantasy novel! Review: The Wyvern's Spur was a great piece of work. Full of adventure and magic, mixed with intrigue and deception. Kate Novak and Jeff Grubb make quite a team. Their writing complements each other so well that their stories come alive, and live in your mind long after the book has ended. I would most definitely recomend this one. However make sure you start with Azure Bonds. You don't want to spoil and of the secrets.

Rating: Summary: If I could I'd give it six or more stars! Review: The Wyvern's Spur, second in the Finder's Stone trilogy, happens to be the best of the bunch. I had trouble putting this book down, it was that good. As my subject line says I would give this one six stars, no seven, if I could! Unlike the Azure Bonds, this is less an adventure and more of a mystery. In it, we alter focus from Alias and Dragonbait to Giogi Wyvernspur. Set in Immersea, a relatively small city deep within Cormyr, we learn early that someone has stolen a family heirloom from the Wyvernspur crypt. Who has done it and why? The answer lies buried in the past, and in the mysterious words of the crypt guardian. However, to make matters a touch more colorful, Tymora blesses us with the presence of none other than Olive Ruskettle. While at first it would seem odd the shift in characters, from Alias to Giogi, it all comes together just in time for the third title in the series: Song of the Saurials. This will no doubt remain one of my favorite stories, in or outside of outside Realms fiction. If you can get your hands on a copy of this title do it, and do it now, you will not regret it.

Rating: Summary: Very good! Review: This book had some strange scenes,but I still liked it.It's nice to have some heroes who aren't all-powerful in a book.I liked both Olive and Giogi,but Cat annoyed me somewhat.I recommend reading this book as well as the two other book in the trilogy.
Rating: Summary: An excellent book in an excellent trilogy Review: What can I say? This book is a shining example of good fiction writing. Good plot, good characters, good pacing and a wonderful change of pace from the traditional trilogy formula of having the main characters in book #1 in dire trouble. I am disappointed however, that the only other novel that I have seen with Giogi and Cat in it has been Ed Greenwood's Cormyr (an excellent book in its own right). Highly recommended along with the two other books in this trilogy.
